Doria Park Hotel

Eines der Hotels mit der besten Aussicht der Welt. Sehr gutes und abwechslungsreiches Frühstücksbuffet. Aber unangenehm. Wenn Sie in einem Raum außerhalb des Hauptgebäudes landen, befinden Sie sich in einem Gewirr von Wegen und die Räume sind klein und eng. Ein wenig Kalk an den Wasserhähnen. Das Anbringen der Plakette zur Aktivierung von Elektrizität ist etwas für Erfinder. Sie können Ihr Telefon nicht aufladen lassen, wenn Sie rausgehen und Ihren Ausweis mitnehmen.

My wife and I stayed over New Year's, and arrived in a very bad physical condition (influenza). I can honestly say that I have not experienced such a professional hotel management team outside of Japan, or EUR1,500/Night Swiss hotels. The room/sheets/towels/bathroom/etc., perfect, housekeeping, perfect, parking, perfect. I have three stories of management excellence from the Front Desk/General Manager level. I never expected to find such quality experience in Lerici. Sadly, it was New Year's and we were sick, so restaurant for lunch/dinner was closed. I imagine it's perfection. Sure, everybody is "friendly", but they were all "professional", and we needed professional. There is no reason to go to Portofino, Porto Venere, or anyplace else: Doria Park at Lerici is perfect.

We have just returned home after a 9 night stay. We booked a package which included a top floor room with balcony and sun beds and pick up/ return to Pisa Airport. Our flight from Manchester was delayed for 2 hours so we didn’t get off to a good start. The Hotel Manager came to pick us up and thankfully he was still waiting despite the long delay. Our room had a fantastic view of Lerici and the Gulf of Poets and we spent many hours just relaxing and admiring the vista. Breakfast was very good with choices of hot and cold food, freshly made coffee and cakes/ pastries. The view from the breakfast room was excellent too. It is a short walk downhill into the town which takes 3 mins and plenty of good restaurants to choose from. Our favourite was L’Ancore de Lerici. The town has a great atmosphere in the evenings with a mix of locals and tourists. Ferries run like clockwork from Lerici to Portovenere and the Cinque Terre. We also caught the local bus to a pretty village called Tellaro about 15 minutes away. This area of Italy is frequented almost exclusively by Italian holidaymakers and consequently very little English is spoken. This did present a few language difficulties with some hotel staff but we managed to get by. All in all a great holiday in a beautiful region of Italy.

The hotel is lovely with very nice rooms, a helpful staff, and a good breakfast. Our room had a lovely view of the town (we adore Lerici!) and the Ligurian coast as did the restaurant. The walk into town was only 6-7 minutes or so, BUT the walk was down steps the entire way. My husband and I had no trouble despite our age, but at night with rain it is a bit hazardous. I am glad we stayed there, but anyone with walking issues, painful knees, etc., might want to avoid this hotel. We had a car but did not want to drive into town because the route is very, very circuitous. Hotel a bit hard to find by car.

Very nice hotel. My room was spacious. The room balcony was even bigger. The view was magnificent. Very quiet and relaxing atmosphere. The hotel is located very close to the marina of Lerici and you can easily find other facilities. Really enjoyable
